Take time to be friendly,
Take time to be true,
Take time to help others
And they will help you.

Take time to be humble,
Take time to give praise,
Take time to love one another
Thru all the difficult days.
(*)(*)(*)(*)
Take time to be thoughtful,
Take time to show others you care,
Take time to tell friends and family

Why are core values critical to our success in business and in life? Because our values are critical guides for making important decisions. And when in doubt they cut through the fog like a beacon in the night.

John Blumberg has written the best book we’ve ever read on how we build value…with values. And if there was ever a time in the history of this great country that we need to re-visit our core values…the time is NOW.

Enjoy an excerpt from John’s book, Good to the Core…Building Value with Values.

An Excerpt from
Good to the Core

U.S.S. Arizona Memorial, Pearl Harbor, Hawaii
.
I was in Honolulu to speak at a large national conference. I scheduled an extra day onto the trip since I had never been to Honolulu and because a few great friends were also at the conference. The day after the conference, we awoke at the crack of dawn to visit Pearl Harbor. As we stood above and looked down upon the sunken USS Arizona, the depth of our experience came to life. It was moving and humbling.
.
Upon our return to the hotel, I had some time to spare before departing to the airport. A couple of my friends and I decided to rent a raft large enough to hold three adults. We targeted the white-capped waves, out in the distance, as our destination. With the incoming waves, we had a hard time getting away from the shore. At first, there seemed to be enormous momentum keeping us “grounded.” Slowly, but surely, we began to make progress. It seemed to get easier. We eventually got within a few feet of the whitecaps and decided to board our raft and relax as a celebration of our efforts. It was in our moment of pause that we felt the reality

II Chronicles 7:14
I remember reading about the children of Israel who turned from God time and time again, only to realize their mistake and pray for forgiveness. Each time, God would forgive them and they would walk with him for a time. So, I am going to ask you to join me in praying for our nation every day.

May God Have Mercy On America; Protect Our Troops

Britain’s Got Talent hopeful Susan Boyle became an overnight sensation last week with her moving performance of “I Dream A Dream” from the Broadway musical Les Miserables. Her back story of being a 48-year-old plain Jane who had never been kissed and lives with her cat helped her rack up tens of millions of YouTube video plays in days.
But 12-year-old Shaheen Jafargholi from Mount Pleasant, Swansea appears to have the goods to eclipse Boyle.
Jafargholi’s performance Saturday night on the competition show has given the Internet yet another new buzz.

Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. –Colossians 3:12-14

US President Barack Obama and his wife first lady Michelle Obama, walk hand in hand as they leave Downing Street…
..
LONDON — Maybe it should have been called the O-20.
Just over two months into his presidency, Barack Obama commanded center stage at this high-wattage gathering of the world’s industrialized nations, vacuuming up attention both inside the summit and throughout a sophisticated city not easily star-struck.
Obama proclaimed at the end of the conference that his country would be more humble in the world, but there was nothing modest about the attention he received.
His profile was so immense that it threatened to diminish both the global summit itself and the protests taking place on the streets of London.
